Until we hear from these "locals" as to what makes them sure that the use of packs other than TP was the cause of their resets, it remains hear-say.
I have been using Turnigy's for the past 18 months and they are near end of life, but never a hint of them causing a brown-out, and prior to your post above, I'd never heard of anyone experiencing a brown-out using budget 20C batteries.
You can use such claims to convince yourself and justify your purchase, but like me, I doubt that it's working on others.
For $25 you can get a good Gens Ace, and who needs the crash insurance on battery packs - not me, I'd rather have a few extra battery packs.
I will personally stick with the TP's"
"Of course I personally don't know of it's from a power dumb on a cheaper pack"
As you can see, I never mentioned one hint of validation so I'm not sure what your saying but it's great to have good experiences with your Gens.
:thumbup:
That peace of mind comes at a cost. If the failure rate was high on other battery packs, such as Gens Ace and Turnigy, then it would be easier to justify the cost of that "peace of mind".
The crash warranty isn't only for a battery failure, but for any unforeseen crash.
:)
Saved me money on my 600.
Sorry it's a bit humorous that I made clear that some resets were "mentioned" after flying cheap packs and that I basically said it was only what I have heard and made my own conscious decision to just spend the extra $25 buck on high quality Thunder Power packs and there was an instant defense regarding the cheaper packs...
I only posted what I ended up doing for my own personal best gut feelings.
Cheers, I'm sure all the other packs are just fine as they have worked for many
